Study Notes
- This video is about using a laptop for nursing students, who have watched and purchased laptops but lack knowledge about the specifics of using a laptop, such as how to use a touchpad, keyboard shortcuts, or how to use a laptop on a desk.
- If the laptop is small enough, it can be used without a keyboard or mouse, but it is important to note that the user should be careful not to put too much pressure on the corners or press too hard when opening the laptop to avoid damaging it.
- The laptop can be opened by placing both hands on either side of the laptop and opening it gently, making sure not to put too much pressure on the corners or hinges.
- The small size of the laptop, such as a notebook size, allows for easy portability and can fit into small spaces, such as a nursing student's bag or locker at the hospital.
- It is recommended that nursing students invest in a good quality laptop with a large screen, such as a 13-inch or larger laptop, for better visibility and comfort when using electronic health records (EHR) or other medical software.
- To make the laptop more ergonomic and comfortable to use, it can be placed on a laptop stand or docking station for better posture and typing position.
- To save space and avoid clutter, it may be beneficial for nursing students to use a wireless keyboard and mouse, rather than having to carry a bulky laptop with a built-in keyboard and touchpad.
- For those who need to use a laptop in a hospital room or other medical setting where an electrical outlet may not be readily available, a laptop with a long battery life and a reliable power bank can help ensure uninterrupted use.
- The laptop should be protected with a sturdy case or sleeve to prevent damage from drops, spills, or other accidents, as well as to maintain a professional appearance while in the hospital setting.
